Hey guys, I’m so nervous that I’m becoming a junior and that I kind a have a hard schedule. But, the main problem is that I do not know anything about macroeconomics, can you give me an idea of what this subject is about?
I daresay that you’ll learn pretty quickly, if you’re taking the class. Have you tried google? (Sorry, I’m not trying to be unhelpful; I’ve never taken econ-- it just seems like you could find the answer to this fairly easily.)
Google is your friend:
Macroeconomics (from the Greek prefix makro- meaning “large” and economics) is a branch of economics dealing with the performance, structure, behavior, and decision-making of an economy as a whole, rather than individual markets. This includes national, regional, and global economies.[1][2] With microeconomics, macroeconomics is one of the two most general fields in economics.
Macroeconomists study aggregated indicators such as GDP, unemployment rates, and price indexes to understand how the whole economy functions. Macroeconomists develop models that explain the relationship between such factors as national income, output, consumption, unemployment, inflation, savings, investment, international trade and international finance. In contrast, microeconomics is primarily focused on the actions of individual agents, such as firms and consumers, and how their behavior determines prices and quantities in specific markets

Just curious: where’s the urgency here?
